Go Outside Simulator

About

Stuck indoors but craving a change of scene? Go Outside Simulator is a laid back exploration game where you wander through a variety of virtual environments. Each setting offers opportunities to discover hidden surprises and unwind in calming spaces. With no set goals or pressure, the game encourages casual interaction and quiet reflection. It runs on PC and plays out as a solo experience. Developed by Aaron DeVries and published by SimRed, the game has a specific purpose beyond relaxation. It's being used as a testing ground for future therapeutic VR applications. While it's still early, players are noting how the simple act of virtual strolling can feel surprisingly soothing. Released in May 2024, it's a small but thoughtful project that leans into the appeal of digital escapism without any frills.
